There are a couple of trees on our land which occasionally bear fruit. I've
never bothered with them before, but as they're loaded this year I tried some
and they were very tasty. They are small (smaller than a walnut - around 2.5 cm
across) and green with the riper ones aquiring a slight yellow tinge.
I think they must be greengages, although my wife will not eat them as she says
they are too small and might be some kind of non edible variety.
Can anyone tell me if this is likely as she is giving me doubts?
They just taste like a very nice plum to me.


That certainly sounds like greengages.
